Comment on Florida revokes permits for license plate readers on state highways

Comments

Has there been any reporting into whether Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise has adequate data access controls around SunPass? They have ALPRs to operate the toll-by-plate system on bridges and toll roads across the state.

In my view, that’s one of the better reasons to have ALPRs at all, but you do need strict controls to prevent misuse.

Monroe County Sheriff Rick Ramsay on the data from toll roads:

"The data is used by all law enforcement. All they have to do is contact the state and get the information. We’ve used it countless times for criminal investigations to see where they’re going, what car they’re in, who the driver is to possibly ID the suspect."
